Update on Lonely Camper Man….

Yes, since Zoey’s untimely death, Camper Man (as I tend to call him) has been sleeping for long periods of time as he hibernates the winter away. He is a lost lonely little soul, coming and going out in the garage under his heat lamp, plush bedding and plentiful food/water source.

I had looked at several cats at the animal shelter to have as companions for him in the long cold winter but none proved suitable unfortunately for his loving man temperment. The females were pretty well independent already in their lives and I thought it might not be a good idea to attempt a character transplant at their age. So, Camper will sleep until March without any mice to entertain him, although now that the birds are being fed, he may find that entertaining enough…but I don’t think so. He doesn’t like cold anymore than I do and he certainly doesn’t like getting his feet wet, rousing himself enough to actually attempt to attack.

My plan is for March. Once the weather becomes less horribly cold, I will begin my quest for a companion once again. I’m partial to calicos!
